Today was a good day. She came to buy jewelry and look at the lamps, and she didn't want to get involved in any trouble.
Picking a pair of ruby earrings and a red-blonde hairpin of the same style, she said to the waiter: "I want these, please wrap them up -"
"I want these two pieces of jewelry!" Wu Xinxue cut her off halfway.
The waiter hesitated.
He looked at Wu Xinxue, and then at Wei Zi. One was the beloved daughter of the president of the Imperial Capital Commercial Bank, and the other was an ordinary woman in simple clothes who looked like she didn't have much money.
After struggling for a while, his conscience prevailed over his greed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Miss Wu, it was this young lady who first took a fancy to——"
"Okay, okay! I'll wrap it up for you right now!" The shopkeeper cut his eyes at the waiter and scolded in a low voice, "Why don't you do it?"
The waiter felt a little aggrieved.
Wei Zi was startled, what do you mean?
Do you rely on your wealth to dominate and prosper? Look down on her, right?
Su Nianyi was angry and was about to take action, but was secretly stopped by Wei Zi.
Wei Zi smiled slightly and said to Wu Xinxue: "Since this lady likes it, I will give the pair of earrings and this hairpin to this lady."
Then he pointed at a set of red gold headscarfs studded with gems and emeralds, and said, "This set of headscarves is not bad, shall I buy this one?"
Wu Xinxue rolled her eyes at Wei Zi: "Can you afford it?"
Wei Zi asked the waiter: "How much does this face cost?"
The waiter replied: "Eight hundred taels of silver."
Wei Zi nodded: "It is indeed a bit expensive, but if you like something, it is still worth buying."
After saying that, she took out two five hundred taels of silver notes from her purse and was about to speak.
Wu Xinxue was already one step ahead of her and said loudly: "I want this face!"
Wei Zi was sure that this Miss Wu made it clear that she could not buy anything and get out in despair.
Well, then treat others in their own way.
In modern times, she has seen many priceless things. She can understand which of the jewelry in this house are valuable at a glance.
So she pretended to be "polite" and "regretful" and selected all the valuable jewelry in the store.
Wu Xinxue naturally chooses whatever Wei Zi wants.
People looking at jewelry in the store turned into people eating melons. Not only that, there were even people stopping at the door.
Someone said: "Why is that Miss Wu so domineering? What does she like? What does she want?"
Someone else said: "That lady is so strange, why isn't she angry at all?"
Someone answered: "Maybe it's because the elbow can't twist the thigh. After all, Miss Wu is the daughter of the president of the Chamber of Commerce."
...
In the end, Wei Zi pretended to be surprised and said: "Miss, so many jewelry are worth a lot of money? Can you really afford it?"
Wu Xinxue raised her head and said, "You don't have to worry about it."
Wei Zi frowned: "If you can't afford it, don't snatch the jewelry I like."
Wu Xinxue was criticized and immediately got angry: "Who said I can't afford it! How much does it cost from the shopkeeper?"
The shopkeeper had already smiled from ear to ear. When Wu Xinxue called out the word "want", he adjusted the abacus beads: "Miss Wu, the jewelry you are interested in totals 5,217 taels. I will give you the change."
Erase it and calculate it as seven thousand two hundred taels."
Wu Xinxue didn't expect it to be so expensive, and she didn't bring so much money when she came out. But if she didn't buy it, in front of so many people, she would be the one who "can't afford it" in Wei Zi's words, and she couldn't be embarrassed by anything!
"Bookkeeping! Come to Wu's house tomorrow to get money."
"Miss Wu, I'm sorry, according to our store's rules, we can't keep accounts..." the shopkeeper smiled apologetically.
Wei Zi chatted to the side: "Since Miss Wu can't afford it, just give it to me."
"No need to keep accounts!"
Wu Xinxue walked up to Zheng Lin: "How much money do you have on hand?"
